Help I'm going to Hawaii, What Can I eat?

[Sparkles01 0]

I was sleeved on September 28th, 2011. I have to go to Hawaii for two weeks on October 31st. The plane trip alone will be a total of 15 hours with all of my layovers. Does anyone have suggestions for what I can eat on the plane, in Hawaii, etc.

I suggest you buy a couple MusclePharm MuscleGel packs. They are a bit over 1 oz and contain 20g of Protein, this way you still are getting Protein on the plane. Also when I flew they had a greek chicken salad. If your allowed (I was at 1 month out) eat the chicken, if you have room left have a few bites of salad. Just do everything you can to ensure you are getting your protein in.

Have fun in hawaii!

Fluids first, Protein next.

My go to foods early out included greek yogurt, Protein powder and soymilk, lunchmeat, and turkey chili.

Will your hotel room have a fridge and microwave? If so, you can buy soy or regular milk, greek yogurt, and lunchmeat and keep it in your room fridge. You could bring a couple of cans of turkey chili too if you have a microwave. Use these to have a little meal by the pool or at night if you didn't get enough Protein during the day.

One Protein Drink I like is 1/2 cup Decaf or regular coffee, 1/2 cup soy milk, and a scoop of vanilla Protein Powder. Tastes like a chilled vanilla latte. I find it's easier to travel with the powder and a shaker than with pre-mixed Protein drinks.

When eating out, I had crab and shrimp cocktail the first few times. It's small and yummy. I drank still Water (no bubbles) with a splash of fruit juice. The fruit juice adds a little color and flavor so I didn't feel deprived.

For fruit, I tolerated melon the best early out. Less acid and it squishes down to almost nothing so you can have a little before you run out of room.

Have a great time in Hawaii!
